Welcome Back Galveston Students and Families!

 

My name is Carissa Lynch.  I am going on my 6th year with Chandler Unified School District.  I have taught at Shumway Elementary and taught K-6th Special Education.  I will continue at Galveston Elementary as the K/1 Opportunity Classroom teacher.  I am very excited to be here!    My family and I moved here from Rio Rancho, New Mexico.  I attended University of New Mexico and earned my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education.  I then taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades.  I decided to go back to school to learn more about Reading and Special Education.  I then earned my Master's in Special Education.  In Rio Rancho, NM, I taught Special Education in K/1 and 5th grade. I recently completed my 2nd Master's Degree in Educational Leadership with Western New Mexico University.

 

My family and I enjoy taking drives, traveling, swimming, and spending time together.  We have a son who will go to college in Flagstaff, AZ, and our daughter will begin Jr. High in 6th grade in Gilbert Public Schools.  I enjoy reading, swimming, and cooking mexican food for my family and friends. 

 

I look forward to working with my wonderful students in the K/1 classroom.  I am very happy to be part of the Galveston Elementary team!
